Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body and live for about 120 days. White blood cells help fight infection as part of the immune system. Platelets help the blood clot. Blood is made up of plasma, which allows cells to move, and four main cell types - red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets, and plasma. Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart while veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart. Capillaries are where gas exchange occurs between blood and tissues. The immune system responds to infections through a coordinated response between white blood cells and antibodies.

Blood cells
This document summarizes the different types of blood cells: red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Red blood cells carry oxygen throughout the body via blood flow. They contain hemoglobin, an iron-containing molecule. White blood cells are involved in the immune system and protect the body against infection and foreign invaders. There are five types of white blood cells. Platelets function in blood coagulation and have a lifespan of 5-9 days. The main metal present in blood is iron, which is contained in red blood cells. A normal human has 5.78-6.21 liters of blood.
BODY FLUIDS AND CIRCULATION CLASS 11 - ASWIN KUMAR
Blood is a connective tissue composed of plasma and formed elements. Plasma is 55% of blood and contains water, proteins, minerals, and blood clotting factors. Formed elements include red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. Red blood cells carry oxygen and lack a nucleus. White blood cells help fight infection. Platelets help with clotting. Blood types depend on antigens on red blood cells. Matching blood types is important for safe transfusions. The coagulation process involves clotting factors that create fibrin clots to stop bleeding. Lymph is tissue fluid collected by the lymphatic system and returned to veins.
Introduction to the circulatory system
The circulatory system transports blood throughout the body, which contains formed elements like erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets suspended in plasma. Blood has three main functions: transportation of oxygen, nutrients, waste products, and more; regulation of body temperature, pH, and fluid levels; and protection through immunity and clotting. When blood is centrifuged, it separates into three layers - erythrocytes on the bottom, then a leukocytes and platelets layer, with plasma on top.
Biochemical composition and functions of blood and lymph
Blood has three main functions: transport, protection, and regulation. It transports gases, nutrients, wastes, hormones, and heat.

The document provides details on the functions of lymph nodes, lymphatic vessels, spleen, thymus gland, and tonsils. It concludes with definitions of immunity and the two types of immunity.
Blood vessels and blood
There are three main types of blood vessels: arteries, veins, and capillaries. Arteries carry oxygen-rich blood away from the heart to tissues, veins carry oxygen-poor blood back to the heart, and capillaries connect arteries and veins and allow for the exchange of oxygen, nutrients, and waste. Blood flows through arteries at high pressure, creating a pulse that can be measured by pulse rate. The normal pulse rate for adults is between 72-80 beats per minute. Blood contains plasma and cellular components like red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets that transport oxygen, fight infection, and help clotting, respectively.
Human Lymphatic System
The lymphatic system protects the body from pathogens, removes excess fluid from tissues, and transports fatty acids and fats. It is composed of lymph capillaries that drain fluid from tissues into lymph nodes, where the fluid is filtered before returning to blood circulation. Major organs of the lymphatic system include the bone marrow, lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, and tonsils, which help the body fight infection by producing lymphocytes and filtering the lymph fluid.

Key differences between the lymphatic and immune systems are highlighted such as their circulatory nature and roles in long-term immunity. Finally, common diseases of the lymphatic system like lymphedema are discussed.
The world of blood vessels
Blood plasma is a straw-colored liquid that makes up 55% of blood volume. It contains water, proteins, glucose, clotting factors, and other dissolved substances. Plasma also transports proteins and electrolytes throughout the body while helping to fight infections. Red blood cells transport oxygen throughout the circulatory system via arteries, arterioles, capillaries, and veins. White blood cells help the immune system fight pathogens. Platelets help the blood to clot and stop bleeding. Together, these components and blood vessels work to supply the body with oxygen and nutrients and remove waste.
Immune lymphatic and endocrine system
1. The endocrine system regulates processes that happen slowly like growth, metabolism, mood, and development through hormones and glands.
2. Glands produce and secrete hormones into the bloodstream which are chemicals that affect distant cells and organs.
3. Major glands of the endocrine system include the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, thyroid, parathyroids, adrenal glands, pineal body, ovaries/testes, and pancreas.

Superstitions
Superstitions discusses common superstitious beliefs about luck, listing things considered bad luck such as opening an umbrella indoors or walking under a ladder and things considered good luck including finding a penny heads up or having a black cat cross your path. The document suggests some people consider themselves unlucky or believe they have bad luck and outlines superstitious dos and don'ts believed by some to influence whether one has good or bad luck.
Crime vocabulary
This document discusses elements of the criminal justice system including police officers investigating a crime, a judge and jury determining guilt or innocence, witnesses providing testimony, a thief committing a crime, weapons potentially used, forensics experts analyzing evidence, and a car accident with a victim.
Solar system
Our solar system consists of the Sun and everything that orbits it, including eight planets, their moons, asteroids, and comets. The inner planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, and Mars are rocky, while the outer planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune are gas giants. Earth stands alone as the only known planet capable of supporting life. The solar system also contains dwarf planet Pluto and countless smaller bodies like asteroids and short-period comets.
Natural Disasters
Pictures and vocabulary to show different types of natural disaster, leading to lexis relating to a National Geographic clip about volcanoes.
Television debates
Discussion prompt using controversial questions, encouraging students to play Devil's Advocate. Great for intermediate and above.
Manners & etiquette
The document provides etiquette and customs advice for visitors to England. It discusses appropriate greetings, terms of endearment used regionally, gift-giving customs, dining etiquette like eating with utensils and not putting elbows on the table, the importance of punctuality for social events, and polite behaviors like queueing, saying "please" and "thank you", and covering coughs and yawns. Visitors are advised not to put knives in their mouths, start eating before all are served, talk with food in their mouth, or blow noses on napkins at meals.
Present perfect continuous
The document discusses the present perfect progressive tense, which is used to talk about actions or states that began in the past and are still continuing. It provides the example "Jane has been working at the bank since 2009" to illustrate how the present perfect progressive tense emphasizes the duration of an action that started in the past and is still ongoing.
Word stress
The document discusses rules of thumb for word stress in English. It explains that stress is louder volume and longer vowel sounds on certain syllables that can change a word's meaning. For two-syllable words, stress is usually on the first syllable whether it is a noun or adjective. Three-syllable words usually stress the first. Compound nouns stress the first part, while compound adjectives and verbs stress the second part. There are also rules for words ending in suffixes like -ic, -tion, -cy, and -al, which typically stress the syllable before the last one or two.
Continuous tenses
The document discusses various continuous verb forms:
1) The present continuous is used for unfinished actions now or future arrangements. The past continuous is used for unfinished past actions or duration.
2) The future continuous expresses unfinished future actions. The future perfect continuous expresses actions that will reach a stage of completion.
3) The past perfect continuous expresses something that started and continued in the past until another time. The present perfect continuous expresses something that started in the past and continues now.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

CLIL: Biology; blood cells.
- 1. Dawn Genner
- 2. Red cells: Most common blood cell, making around 45% of the blood. Doughnut-shaped. Do not have a nucleus. Contain haemoglobin (which is why they’re red) Live for approximately 120 days. Carry oxygenated blood from lungs to cells that need it.
- 3. White cells Search for bacteria Carry antibodies Antibodies = our bodies’ defences against viruses and bacteria. Part of: our immune system.
- 4. Platelets Fragments of cells Used to help clot (coagulate) the blood. Platelets live for an average of 10 days.
- 5. Plasma Is a pale yellow colour Is 90% water Plasma allows other blood cells to move around.
- 6. It is made in the centre of our bones = in our bone marrow.
- 7. There are three types of blood vessel: Arteries Carry blood away from the heart (always oxygenated apart from the pulmonary artery which goes to the lungs) Have thick muscular walls Have small passageways for blood (internal lumen) Contain blood under high pressure
- 9. Veins Carry blood to the heart (always de-oxygenated apart from the pulmonary vein which goes from the lungs to the heart) Have thin walls Have larger internal lumen Contain blood under low pressure Have valves to prevent blood flowing backwards
- 11. Capillaries Found in the muscles and lungs Microscopic – one cell thick Very low blood pressure Where gas exchange takes place. Oxygen passes through the capillary wall and into the tissues, carbon dioxide passes from the tissues into the blood
- 12. When an infective cell is detected, white blood cells will send out a message to another type of cell: t-helper cells. This also triggers your immune system.Your body releases millions of antibodies to fight off the enemy cells. The antibody cells join themselves to the bacterial cell in an attempt to overpower it.
- 13. As this process continues, the number of infectious cells will decrease and the body can stop the battle. Another kind ofT cell, theT-suppressor cell (orT8 cell), will send out messages to the other cells and "de- activate" them. Without theT-suppressor cells, the body would continue trying to fight off a disease that no longer exists (and eventually would end up fighting its own cells).
- 14. Bruising is caused by blood vessels becoming damaged, which causes bleeding into the skin.
- 16. Control of body temperature Keeping out infection It´s a waterproof barrier Protects delicate tissues underneath Mends itself when damaged
- 17. Plants: structure and cells What can you remember?!?!?!
